Summary:
Once a Victorian Chapel and School House but now an elegant residential home that is ready for new owners. The inside space is versatile and lends itself to multi-generational living families.

Ground floor:
The kitchen/diner is a hub providing space which the family is drawn too, however that changes as the summer approaches and everyone moves to the other side of the property to spend their time in the snug and garden room – which is an ideal area soaking in the sun and with delightful views over the landscaped garden, as well as far reaching fields.

Additionally on the ground floor, there are three bedrooms and a shower room. All of the bedrooms are double and the principal room benefits from a dressing area and an en-suite shower room.

First floor:
Two sets of stairs connect the ground floor to the upper level. The space to the front is used a games room – a space that has been designed to entertain family and friends, with room for a pool table, as well as a kitchenette. From here there is access to a study on the mezzanine above – this could become the optimum space to work from home and if you needed a break you can just pop down and play a game of pool to unwind.

To the other side of the property there is another sitting room of similar proportions, to further entertain the family, with a log burner and double height ceilings – space, elegance and charm are some of the characteristic you can enjoy here. Completing the upper floor is a double guest bedroom and a further bathroom.

Outside:
The outside space is well established - to one side, through electric wrought iron gates a spacious gravel drive leads to the double garage, providing ample parking. The chapel is located centrally within the plot and as such the garden feels diverse and full of life. There is a good size lawn, ideal for those that have a lot of energy to burn, however there are also multiple seating areas which allow you to capture the sun throughout the day, whilst mature trees and hedges provide a texture to this beautifully landscaped garden.
